Deferred action, a program by the Obama administration to give work permit to undocumented youth who arrived in the United States as minors, is the major change to immigration rules in almost 20 years, and potential petitioners have a lot of questions about it.
Interestingly, I haven't seen any informational event scheduled in the Monterey Peninsula. From what I hear, there's demand for these sessions over there too.
The Salinas Union High School District will host a free information session on Deferred Action. Information to be provided are eligibility requirements and on how to begin to prepare a case. The presentation will also include a panel of attorneys to available to answer questions regarding the petition process.
The event will take place Saturday, Sept. 22 from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Performing Arts Center of Salinas High School, 726 S. Main St., Salinas. For more information, call Julia Grant at 796-7867 or Laura Orozco at 796-7869.
